BRIEF BIO
Dr. Harikrishnan S. currently serves as an Assistant Professor in the Division of Mechanical Engineering, School of Engineering, Cochin University of Science and Technology, Kochi, Kerala. His research areas include heat transfer, multiphase flows, indoor air-conditioning, data-driven methods in thermal engineering, etc. He was awarded the Ph.D. degree by the Department of Mechanical Engineering, IIT Madras, in 2019, where he received the IIT Madras Institute Research Award for his Ph.D. thesis. His doctoral research mainly focused on understanding the underlying mechanism of flow and heat transfer due to secondary flows in different corrugated channels using numerical investigations. He completed his MTech in Thermal Power Engineering (2014) and BTech in Mechanical Engineering (2012) from the NIT Trichy and GEC, Thrissur, respectively. He also holds a PG Diploma in Patent Law (2014) from NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad.
